That was my only option until I reach the last year of school where my chemistry teacher attempt to study chemical convens me that would be very good and I would go very well but preferred to follow my dream.
Once it comes to university I discovered that my decision was the right’ve lived and learned too much in one year, I'm perfectly happy going to university. My teachers are great and the atmosphere is very relaxing.

In the future I want to work with cows, on the part of meat productions.
